CE 5360. BUILDING SCIENCE II. 3 Hours.

Building science is critical for accessing human comfort and energy efficiency. In this course, students will be able to understand the basic concepts of thermodynamics (heat transfer, energy balance, psychrometric chart) and apply to building engineering (human comfort, building enclosures, HVAC systems). As a term project, students will learn energy simulation tools. There will be additional tasks to learn EnergyPlus for graduate students. Credit not granted for both AREN 4314 and CE 5360. Prerequisite: AREN 3213.
